    Bash on Root, Sh-3.2 on User? [SOLVED]

    Hello all, quick question.

    I'm running BackTrack 4 on my laptop and was hoping you guys would be able to help me with a small issue I'm having.

    On my root account, when I open up Konsole, it's already in bash. However, when I open Konsole on a user account, the prompt is sh-3.2$ and I have to type bash to get it there. There has to be a way to make it bash by default. After about an hour of Googling though, I've come up with nothing. Ideas?

    The 'chsh' (change shell) command will let you change a user's login shell.

    Run 'chsh', give your password and it will show you what your user's default login shell is. If it's not '/bin/bash', change it.
